The iPhone 14 Pro colors and iPhone 14 Pro Max

colors are important to know for shoppers
considering an upgrade to one of the phones in
Apple's new lineup. And no matter which model
you opt for, you’ll have to select which color you
want to buy.

iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max colors are di]erent

than those o]ered for the iPhone 14 and iPhone
14 Plus. The iPhone 14 colors are generally more
vibrant, o]ering full-bodied color for the back
glass. The iPhone 14 Pro models, rather, featured
a frosted glass material in more muted hues.

In addition to new color options, the iPhone 14

Pro replaces the notch with a cutout called the
Dynamic Island. It also gets an always-on display
feature, a new 48MP main camera sensor, A16
Bionic-powered performance and an incredible
battery life. These are, essentially, the key
di]erences between the iPhone 14 vs. iPhone 14
Pro beyond the colors.

Below is all the info you'll need on iPhone 14 Pro

and Pro Max colors, with hopes that we can help
you pick the best one for you. There's no clear
“best” color (although Deep Purple is an inclusive),
but we'll go into detail about how all the colors
compare.

Keep in mind that some of the best iPhone 14 Pro

cases and best iPhone 14 Pro Max cases likely
come in your favorite color, if it's not o]ered for
the iPhones themselves.

iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14

Pro Max colors
The iPhone 14 Pro starts at $999 for 128GB, while
the larger iPhone 14 starts at $1,099. These two
models o]er the same color range, which
includes Space Black, Silver, Gold and Deep
Purple. Apple o]ered similar colors for the
previous iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max,
only swapping out Sierra Blue for Deep Purple on
the current-gen lineup.

Many will say Deep Purple is the best iPhone 14

Pro color available. That's because it's a color
o]ered only for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14
Pro Max, it hasn't been used before on a previous
iPhone. You might call it the "signature color."

Apple has sold purple iPhones before but none

quite the hue of Deep Purple. In low light, this
color could be mistaken for black. The purple-
ness of it is pretty subtle, but shines beautifully in
the right light. It's likely that you get this color,
you'll want to get a clear case or a color-matched
case. Otherwise, the purple might clash with a
case of a di]erent color. That's just our two-cents,
the preference is ultimately yours.

An option we particularly like for the iPhone 14

Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max is Silver. Yes, it might
be a bit basic, but the larger camera lenses really
pop on the white glass. There's a neat shadow
e]ect you'll see around the raised camera bump
more on this color than any of the others.

Silver is also a blank canvas when it comes to

Znding a good case. It goes with practically any
color. This could be the best color to get if you're
keen on switching your case often.

For those who like a little glam, the iPhone 14 Pro

or iPhone 14 Pro Max in Gold is great choice as
well. The jewelry-like Znish stands out, but not too
much. While the details sparkle, a majority of the
gilded hue is pretty muted.

It seems like Gold doesn't get as much love as the

other iPhone colors, but it happens to look nice
on the iPhone 14 Pro. Like Deep Purple, this is a
color that goes well with a clear case. But we also
think it'll pair great with a pastel-colored silicone
case or a warm brown leather case.

Space Black

Space Black is the plainest iPhone 14 Pro and

iPhone 14 Pro Max color, but that's not a bad
thing. It's basic, sure, but there's no pressure for
your smartphone to make a fashion statement.
And similar to Silver, Space Black looks great with
just about any kind of iPhone case you'll Znd.

and iPhone 14 Pro Max — reasons to buy and
